Freshman quarterback CJ Bailey and the guys came roaring back in the fourth […]

Running backs Jayden Lee and Daniel Duncan were absolutely tearing up the field, eating up tons of yards and leaving the Tigers’ defense totally dizzy. QB Anthony Boyd Jr. kept things running smoothly, even tossing a […]

This amazing photo journey of mine…

Wow, my journey in photography, especially sports, has been completely unexpected! It all started because I honestly just needed to get out and be more active, you know?

What’s even better is that I get the amazing chance to photograph some of my childhood sports heroes and huge personalities. It gives me such a great feeling of closure and realization!

What sets this one apart from all the others? The is the one game a year where my focus is not entirely on the game, but everything that goes into putting […]

It’s not just pre-season for the players.

Well it finally happened. I covered my first NFL game and even better it was a Washington Redskins game. Being a Washingtonian and life-long Redskins fans, you think this would have been huge for me. It was and it wasn’t. When I first started shooing my nephew’s football games at Wilson Senior High in DC, I never would have imagined I would be on a NFL sideline. I picked up a camera at the time to be more active and […]
